One company owns a vast amount of all grocery stores in Canada.

So sure, it may not be the “grocery stores” individually, it’s sure as shit on their holding company.

Memes have become a sort of coping mechanism/method of communication, and it just reflects the the broader state of the world around them.
Places like Lemmy have becomes bastions for people to share their thoughts and opinions, because the overwhelming consensus is the acknowledgment of being helpless and this is a way to vent and share (what should be) obvious solutions to the problems we’re facing.
Sure, we go out and vote and talk to friends and family about the things we can do to make change, but we’re not in the class of people to make that change happen.
So I say fuck it, post away the neo-nilhism memes, I’ll upvote em and laugh away the enormous issues the world has.
It’s insane that a company can miss the point by this much…
Just make a good product, do everything you can to avoid fleecing your player base, and they will come. Then you can add microtransactions that people can buy. You gotta earn that shit through merit of a good game.
Yeah, but the conversation is about people being bale to afford it at all? Of course people who can afford it… Can afford it? That number is under 1% of the population, so it really shouldn’t be a thing.
I live in Canada, so…
Doesn’t have anything to do with $20k being absurd, but…
I actually can’t tell if you’re being serious or not…
Are you…?
Average salary in my city is ~$60k. $20k for a flight is ludicrous.
The reasons might be fine, but my opinion is that is whole thing is a little bit… Blown out of proportion.
Just on a couple of your points:
The other thing for me is that Discord is the messaging app I prefer, by a long shot. If they see this as an opportunity to add SMS linking to their feature set, and allow users to then also bridge those from the mobile to desktop version, it would solve a lot of communication issues I have, having everything in one place.
It’s a welcome change in my book.
Upper management in the hot seat, as usual. What did he do this time?
Thank God I won’t be homeless for Christmas, that gets to wait until January now. :)
Just kidding, I’m still renting because I can’t afford to save for a down-payment. :)))
I make it a point to forget scanning half of my shit there. It’s less about self-checkout (I quite honestly don’t mind it all that much), and more about the insane cost of living now.
I refuse to spend $30 on milk, eggs, cheese, bread, and butter.
Lmao. I mean, yeah. I dunno about everyone else here, but I’d much rather see that money be spent in a productive “society-first” manner instead of literally just bleeding into nothing.
Nothing money does nothbut sit there anyways, so spend it to improve quality of life or give it all back and let us do it.
Fuck.
Pls pick orange team guys. :c
This. And the same goes for work in general. Doing work only has value because we attached money to it. People saying that scanning your own 10 items at the grocery store is labor and you should be paid accordingly… I’ll always respect peoples’ opinions and values, but something has to give if we feel as a society that that is worth compensation.
That is to say, the free labor for the corporations is not lost on me, I’m just thinking bigger picture. The budding socio-anarchist in me wants to burn the system to the ground and watch what rebuilds.
We were doomed from the start, damn those dank river valleys for establishing commerce and social hierarchy!
Genuinely not sure why people are lining up to argue you on this. Its not even opinion, just facts.
If anything, it’s about time us white guys have to fucking struggle a bit. I’d just like a world where we can collectively pull our heads out our asses and stop voting the wrong people into power.
